suited and Scotty Nguyen folded in the small blind with 
offsuit. Sklenicka called in the big blind with

The hand after that, Sklenicka shoved with offsuit and was called by the player in the big blind with 
and the queen came on the river to take Sklenicka out of the running for today.
A few hands later, the player in the late position raised to 6,000 and [Removed:532] shoved for 26,000 from the small blind. The player in the big blind called and the initial raiser folded.
[Removed:532]: 
Big Blind:
